Comments not shown in index item

We have a problem that comments are not shown below the news article in some index items.

Example not showing the comment:
http://www.hetgoedeleven.com/Geloven/GelovenColumnsDetail/tabid/269/IndexID/66286/Default.aspx

Same article showing the comment:
http://www.hetgoedeleven.com/Geloven/GelovenColumnsDetail/tabid/243/IndexID/66286/Default.aspx

Both index Items have the same token in the template:
<div class="Comments">[COMMENT:EventList]</div>

Is there any way to display the comments of a single article in every index item that displays the article?
We have 4 index items showing articles based on (the search directories of) their categories.

Any help is appreciated.

PS I found out an Index Item only shows the comments that are written in that particular index item.
When an article is shown in two different Index Items they only display 'their own' comments.

Is there any way of changing this behaviour? Or is this a bug? (it's not a bug, it's a feature :-) )

Was this with the 2012.01.18 release? If not, please update to the latest release, which is actually 2012.02.06. The template for Index Item will need to be reloaded as well.

Yes, it was with the 2012.01.18 release.



We'll now update to the 2012.02.06 relase and I'll let you know if this solved the problem.

We have updated our testsite to 2012.02.06 but the problem remains the same.



It seems that the displayed comments are linked to the index item they are written in.



It does show the correct total number of comments when using the [COMMENTCOUNT] token but the [COMMENT:EventList] token then only shows the comments that are written in the index item that is currently displaying the article.



With our 4 Index Items we can have 4 separate lists of comments on one article which is nice, but not how we want it :-D

Download version 2012.02.17 of WebControls and IndexItem. Update the template. See if issue persist.

Yes it works in 2012.02.17!

All comments are now visible in all Index Items

Great thanks!

Just to complete this subject:

I could still use my own custom comment templates in the webcontrols.
The only thing I needed to add (after updating to 2012.02.17) is the new parameter in first line of the comment.htm file

Desktopmodules>Webcontrols>Templates> myTemplate > comment.htm

[SETTINGS:AutoGrowTextbox=True,Pagesize=20,MostRecent=10,SupportAjax=False,ModuleSpecific=False]
